Seems to be the best bang for the buck compared to other shocks. Remote preload adjust, full damping adjustment, blah blah. People complain about Ohlins performance, Touratech is more money. Don't know about the rest, but I like the Elka.

Im in the market for new rear suspension to match the YZ forks i just got for my G650GS. I may be in on this! How will the ordering go through since each shock should be set up different for each rider?

A rider-specific, dual-rate spring set-up provides the plushness and progression needed to improve the stock suspension on BMW Enduro motorcycles, reducing excessive front and back weight transfer (diving and squatting) under acceleration and braking, bottoming out on harsh impacts and front-end pushing when cornering.

I'll take the rider & bike info and payments from those that want the shocks.

I just received a quote from Hyperpro for around 1228 plus shipping and handling. I replied back that I found elka suspension for a great deal and asked them what they could do as far as coming down on price.

Im about 90% sure that Im in on this. Thanks a lot for enticing me to go ahead with the fully adjustable 900 dollar shock. hahah this bike is getting expensive fast.
